Any of you guys get a pup from Andy's litter in June. I was just curious how they were doing. I've had mine on 10 lions and probably a dozen bobcat tracks of which 4 were caught. It's been tough conditions and I just can't seem to catch a break this year. I think she could catch her own lion but not her own bobber. She does a good job trailing and has been keeping up with my other dogs and hunting for herself. The only thing I don't like about her is her build, alot of people have asked if she's crossed with a beagle. Hope she grows out of it. Added a couple pics of our last hunt in the Powder River Triangle. 5 mile race, dogs treed for 2 hours only to have the cat jump when we were 200 yards from the tree and make it into a hole. Go figure, it was the biggest track I ran all year.

Ross, the pup was born 5-1 only one I have kept tabs on this early is (slycats) Slash male. I am sure he will chim in and say what he thinks of this cross as he is hunting older female from same cross and they have caught a few cats I believe

Brandy on the tree twist beside me and Slash doing what he does, trying to get as close to the cat as possible.

Slash has been a blast to hunt , he has a personality witch is one of a kind. He dont run behind the other dogs chasing tail,he will grub tracks just as hard as the others and maybe even harder. He has treed his own bobcat and lions. I dont run with a bunch of other dogs 3 total, i think this helps the young dogs out rather then running with a bunch of people and there dogs. Hes not perfect but he still a young dog , once i get slash to lean with me on the back of sled it will be better . This dog loves riding the sled
